Proximal femoral megaprosthesis for failed total hip arthroplasty.
BACKGROUND The purpose of this study was to assess the clinical outcome and complications of megaprostheses for massive proximal femoral bone loss after failed total hip arthroplasty. METHODS Between June 1997 and December 2002, 12 patients (12 hips) with massive proximal femoral deficiencies had reconstruction of the hip using proximal femoral megaprostheses. The average age of the patients ...
متن کاملHow Long Do Endoprosthetic Reconstructions for Proximal Femoral Tumors Last?
BACKGROUND As the life expectancy of patients with musculoskeletal tumors improves, long-term studies of endoprosthetic reconstructions are necessary to establish realistic expectations for the implants and compare them to other reconstruction approaches. QUESTIONS/PURPOSES (1) What is the long-term survival of cemented bipolar proximal femoral replacements? (2) How does prosthesis survival c...
متن کاملProximal femoral locking compression plate for proximal femoral fractures.
PURPOSE To review short-term outcomes of proximal femoral locking compression plate (PF-LCP) fixation for proximal femoral fractures in terms of postoperative complications and failure rates. METHODS Medical records of 21 men and 5 women aged 22 to 85 (mean, 49.7) years who underwent internal fixation with the PF-LCP for proximal femoral fractures were reviewed. Younger patients (mean age, 38...
متن کاملModular megaprosthesis in metastatic bone disease of the femur.
The treatment of bone metastases is frequently palliative, aiming to achieve satisfactory pain control and to prevent or treat pathological fractures. For lesions involving the femur, internal fixation frequently fails; therefore, prosthetic reconstruction may be the optimal choice for treatment. This article retrospectively reviews our experience with femoral bone metastases between 1999 and 2...
متن کاملModular proximal femoral replacement in salvage hip surgery for non-neoplastic conditions.
Addressing severe proximal femoral bone loss in revision hip surgery is a challenging reconstructive problem. The use of modular proximal femoral megaprostheses is one of many available options to address this. This is a retrospective review of 15 patients who had undergone limb salvage at our institution using a modular proximal femoral replacement. There were 8 males and 7 females with a mean...
